Chapter 254, Sand Table, Story

Fuyuan is the name Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi gave to their own garden, which means that they naturally hope to be happy all the time, but people in Riverside Village still prefer to call this garden Shen Jiayuanzi.

After some pick-up, the Fuyuan Garden is no longer the desolate garden as before. Although all kinds of flowers and trees have just been planted, it has also made people see that it is very style. It can be imagined that when these trees grow up and the flowers and plants grow out, how many flowers and green they will be.

Shen Zi knocked on the door and was let in by Father Blue.

"Are you used to living here?"

Shen Ziju asked Father Lan. He knew that this was the current jankeeper of the fourth brother's family, and he heard that he had known Su Zhi before. He also saw that Su Zhi and Shen Zi'an were polite to them, so he was also very gentle and cared about them. This is not difficult for Shen Ziju. Although he does not often walk around the village, he has a good popularity because he is very good at talking and has an excellent attitude.

Daddy Lan nodded and said, "It's okay."

Dad Lan doesn't talk too much to outsiders. Except for Shen Zi'an's family, he is not particularly enthusiastic when he sees almost anyone, but it also gives people a very steady and honest feeling. It makes people feel that he is an honest person, but he just doesn't like to talk.

"I'll take you inside."

Dad Lan said that every time he opened the door and put people in, he would take them to the front of the courtyard, give a notice, and then come back. If it was some people that Shen Zi'an didn't want to see, he wouldn't put them in at all.

"Thank you, Daddy Blue."

Shen Zi said politely and followed Father Lan forward. He also said hello to Aunt Lan, who was beside him, with a smile.

Now in front of the gate of Fuyuan, there is a door building, and there are concierges on both sides. Father Lan and Aunt Lan live on one side. The other side is loaded with sundries. On the side, trees were also planted, not only trees. There is also a thatched shed. This kind of shed is round and looks like a big mushroom. This is what Su Zhi came up with. There are several such thatched huts in the garden, and there are stone tables and round piers underneath, which is a little elegant.

There is no stone table and stone pier under the thatched shed next to the concierge. Instead, two chairs were placed. Aunt Lan was sitting there sewing clothes. One of them was an empty rocking chair with a thin cushion and a bamboo fan. At first glance, it is Father Blue's seat.

Shen Ziju looked at the peaceful scene. The fourth brother's family is really doing very well now. Their kept porters are so leisurely, but they are much better than those who farm in the village. It's much better than their family. You know, Shen Youfu will follow him to the ground. He doesn't have to go to the ground at home. How can he live such a leisurely life?

Shen Ziju looked at the small cushion on the rocking chair and felt that it must have been given by Su Zhi. He thought that only a kind person like Su Zhi would make this kind of thing. In this countryside, it doesn't matter to sit on the ground. How can you think of a cushion? Many people even have patches on their clothes, and they don't even have enough quilts at home. Shen Ziju thought that the fourth sister-in-law was really a kind-hearted person. She brought the old couple back to take care of food and drink, and was so good to them.

Thinking like this all the way. It's right in front of the courtyard gate.

Daddy Lan entered the door and saw Su Zhi sitting in the yard, so he said that Shen Zi raised it.

Su Zhi sat under the porch in front of the door and was playing with a fan. It was really hot, and in ancient times, people were conservative and could not show her arms and legs. Although she had a spiritual spring on her body, she didn't feel that it was too hot, but the children were hot. She wanted to make a fan for them.

Three children sat under the porch, with a small table in front of one person, with a sand table on it, writing something with bamboo on it. Su Zhi said a word, and they wrote a word. They are all extremely serious and small.

This is Su Zhi checking the literacy of her children.

"Fifth brother, why are you here? Your fourth brother is in the bamboo forest! Father Lan, go and help Ann, and say that the fifth brother is coming.

Daddy Lan turned around and left.

Shen Ziju looked at Su Zhi and saw that she was dressed differently today than the previous days. Perhaps because she was at home, she wore a light yellow coat. When she stood there, she was particularly elegant. He really felt more and more that she was not like a rural peasant woman, and he also felt more and more that it was really wronged for her to marry

"Fourth sister-in-law, let me see the fourth brother and you."

Shen Zi raised a smile and said that there was not much reason for the brothers to run to the door. The questions and answers were just scene words. He answered and came forward and looked at the three children.

Xiao Ri Xinger and Yue Yue were extremely polite. When they saw Shen Ziju coming, they all got up to say hello to Shen Ziju, and then sat down and continued to write and draw on the sand table.

"Fourth sister-in-law, what are they doing?"

Shen Zi came forward and saw that Xiao Ri seemed to be writing. He couldn't help but be surprised. Did these three children actually start to learn to write? It's really fast. When he was as young as them, it seemed that he hadn't started to learn. But this is not the main reason why he was surprised. The main reason why he was surprised was the sand table on the table.

Shen Ziju walked closer and looked at the sand table. He saw that it was a rectangular tray made of wood. It was very shallow, but it could put sand in it. Those young ones were extremely soft, fine, very clean and flat, and now it was full of words. Shen Ziju was very surprised.

When Shen Ziju was a child, his family was not very rich, and reading was really a very expensive thing. Pen, ink, paper and inkstone were expensive, and books were even more expensive. It takes pen and ink for the baby to learn to write, and when he began to learn, he wrote very much. If he writes badly one after another, it is simply throwing money into the water. Many students try their best not to spend paper before writing well. The last way to come up with is to write on the slate and then wipe it with a wet cloth. Shen Ziju also used that method to practice a good word.

The method of practicing words with slate is good, but one thing is that it is always necessary to wipe the ink, which is often black in one hand, and the cloth becomes darker and darker. If it is not washed, the slate will also be black. But as long as the cloth is stained with ink once, it is difficult to write it out.

Naturally, Shen Ziju didn't have to wash those cloths by himself, but he just wiped them, and he didn't like it when his hands were dirty. Now I see this way of using the sand table to practice words. It's not bright in front of my eyes. I think this way is better than the way to write on the slate. As long as you gently wipe it with your hand, all those words will be gone, and it will be a piece of flat sand. Although it is not natural to write with ink, it is very suitable for people who have just started to learn calligraphy.

Seeing that Shen Ziju had been looking at their sand table, he said, "Five uncle, we are learning calligraphy, and my mother is taking the exam whether we have memorized the words."

Xing'er looked up and said, "Uncle, do you think the handwriting we wrote is good?"

Yueyue said aside, "Of course it's good! My mother said that my handwriting is good! Fifth uncle, do you think I look good when I write? I didn't write a word correctly!"

Shen Ziju recovered from surprise and said with a smile, "Yes, you are all very good. The little uncle hasn't learned words at your age yet. In the future, Xiaori and Xing'er will definitely be on the gold list, and Yueyue will also become everyone's boudoir.

Yueyue curled her little mouth and said, "I don't want to be a lady. I want to be my mother's little baby!" Brother Xiaori said that like Aunt Liang, she is a lady. I don't want to do that!"

Shen Ziju asked curiously, "Why? Isn't that good? Look at her girl, she doesn't have to do anything by herself. Don't you want to do that?"

Shen Ziju is also teasing Yueyue. He knows that Su Zhi loves these three children very much. Although he is also gentle to his nephews and nieces at home, he never takes the initiative to play with them, because he doesn't like to play with the children very much. But now he is talking to them patiently. He wants Su Zhi to know that he is actually a good person. Even if they can only be uncles and sisters-in-law in this life, he hopes that he will be perfect in her eyes.

Yueyue said, "Aunt Liang is a little uncle who walks and can't run. You can't climb trees, go down the pond, and sit on the ground with Xiaohei. Brother Xiaori said that everyone's boudoir should be quiet, but I don't want it. My mother said that Yueyue can run and jump at will. Yueyue will be a heroine and a little dragon girl in the future! Don't be a lady!"

Shen Ziju thought that this little girl was a kind-hearted person. The fourth sister-in-law was so gentle that she raised such a small skin monkey. It seemed that she really spoiled her. However, looking at her little face that is similar to Su Zhi, he doesn't hate it. He feels that such an angry baby seems to be very cute.

"Which one is the little dragon girl? Is she a heroine?"

Shen Ziju asked. He felt as if there were many things he didn't know when talking to the little doll, and from their mouths, he could know more things, so he asked with a smile, showing that he was very curious.

"The little dragon girl is a heroine who will fly around! My mother tells me her story every day! It's nice for my mother to tell stories. She can also tell the story of Journey to the West!"

Yueyue showed off to Shen Ziju how great her mother was. In the past, she hugged Su Zhi and blinked at Su Zhi with big eyes, as if she was talking about her mother. I'm praising you. You praise me!

Su Zhi really couldn't laugh or cry. Thinking of this little girl, she was really getting more and more naughty. She looked at Shen Ziju's surprised eyes and said with a smile, "I've heard others tell some stories before, and I told them to the dolls when I have nothing to do, but they can remember it."

Shen Zi nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, did you think of the sand on this table?"

When Su Zhi saw Shen Ziju asking this, she wanted him to ask what to do with this, and then she understood. I don't think so. Nowadays, people don't even come up with the simplest way, right? However, she didn't hide it. She thought that she could even say that she had come up with it. What can't be admitted in such a small sand table? It's not amazing. So she nodded and said nothing else. RQ
